Flamengo Maricá began their 2026 women’s Rio state championship campaign with a 7–0 win over Araruama at Gávea on October 28. Under-20 players represented the club, a choice the announcement linked to the senior team’s preparations for the Brazilian Cup.

Campos scored twice, with Leane, Ana Papel, Yasmim Cardozo, Thalita and Laura Cardoso also on target. Three first-half goals built the lead before further goals after the break gave the young side a commanding start.

This was a women’s state championship result, not a Brazilian Cup fixture for the senior team. The players’ age group and the club’s squad arrangements help explain the win alongside the scoreline.
